For an experience like no other, try bush camping in the reserve. Instead of living in a luxurious lodge or hotel, you will be camping in tents.
Public campsites cost a fraction of a lodge stay and don't need advance booking, though they offer only basic facilities. Private and special campsites cost more but come with a dedicated crew, better security and sometimes exclusive activities like night walks. It suits travellers who want to be immersed in the sounds of the bush rather than stay in a fixed lodge, and works well combined with game drives from the same base.
